Whatsoever thy hand findeth to

Polly said it almost without think
ing, then repeated it more slowly, as II
sense of its meaning came over her.
AS her eyes wandered about the half
swept floor, she recalled something
grandma had said at breakfast-time:-
Bringing an earnest purpose of do
ing our best to everything we do. The
smallest thing we may do may be an
offering of service to the Lord If well
and faithfully done"
II wonder If grandma would call this

looked at the floor in great discomfort
"But it is getting so hot, and do hate
to sweep. wish mamma didn't think
it her duty to make us children learn
to do things about the house. Hattie
Pierce never has to sweep and dust. p"
But after few moments thought,
the chairs were busted and carried on,
of the room, and the rug lifted and
shaken. Then half-hour's patient
work put q very different look upon
things, and Polly was well satisfied with
it as she brought few budding lilacs
and put in a vase.

A flash Of sunlight as she jerked up

sprang after the shining thing.

With few words to grandma, she
sped across the field to Uncle Johns.

Journalistic.

The Adrertiser, published at Salisbury,
Nd, has entered upon its 2lst year. 1t is a
good political and local paper, and the editor
says he endeavors to give the news, not manu-
facture it. In order to accommodate its rapid
progress it will soon move to larger building
and will then use steam.
Messrs. Walworth & Co., publishers OF New
Farm, Emilia, Nd, have purchased the old
Maryland Farmer, which was so successfully
conducted for long time by the late +.
Whitman We feel assured that they will
bring to the Farmer experience and capability
and in a short time make it the equal of any
farm journal in the country.
The contributors to the September number
of the Forum are: the Hon. Thomas White,
Minister of the interior of Canada; Mrs.
Craik, author of "John Halifax, Gentleman"
DIR. Jessopp, the we'll -known English essayist;
President Bascom, of Williams College; Prof.
Young, the astronomer; Senator Ingalls,,
Andrew Lang, Prof. Cope, Bishop Coke,
Nicholas P. Gilman, and Prof. Winchell.

The Platform and Ticket.

The Democratic party have promulgated
platform and named its candidates, and it
now remains forlthe party to close ranks and
march forward to victory: The platform
breathes pure Democracy, and upon only one
point has it failed to speak directly On the
question of new constitution, which must be
determined by the people this fall, the party
has not been outspoken. lttakes for granted
the people desire a new one, and makes spe-
cifc promises in regard to taxation and regis
tration in the event the people declare for
new charter at the November election. Upon
this important question there should have
been no room for division, and the party
should have taken decided stand. With
this exception there is no fault to be found
with the deliyerance of the state convention.
The balance of it is sound, and in the line OF
progress and reform, and every true Demo-
crat must heartily endorse it.
The platform, then, being satisfactory we
next turn to the candidates. For Governor
the Hon. Elihu E. jackson, of Wicomico,
has been nominated. His private and public
character is above reproach. The signal sue
cess with which he has managed vast lumber,
banking, shipping and railroad interests, are
ample evidence of his administrative ability,
while his service in both branches of the leg
islature has given him a full knowledge OF
state affairs.
For Comptroller, Col. L. Victor Baughman
Is the nominee. Col. Baughman, in manag-
ing the affairs of the Chesapeake OHIO
Canal has shown a financial ability of a high
character. He has reduced expenditures,
increased the revenues, and managed to pay
off large amount of floating debt, mostly
overdue wages to employees. There is every
reason to suppose that he will carry into the
Comptroller's Office the same energy and
economy that has characterized his admins
tration of the affairs of the canal, and will
conduct the office with signal ability to the
credit of the state and with satisfaction to the
4ax payers.
For Att General Hon. W. Pinkney Whyte
has been chosen. As a lawyer he has no SUI
periors and but few equals. As Comptroller
and Governor he gained a knowledge of state
affairs in all their details, and will be pru-
dent and able legal adviser to the Legislature
and Governor.
The candidates are not only able, but all
are staunch Democrats, and have uniformly
supported the party. Their records for party
fealty are above reproach. No faint OF dis
loyalty attaches to them.
With a sound platform and able candidates,
with clean party records, there is no ground
for criticism, and the platform and ticket are
worthy of the support of all true Democrats
in the state. Every voter who believes in
Democratic principles must cordially and
heartily support both, and with full vote the
Republican party, with its new allies, viii go
to the wall, and not only will Democracy
again be triumphant, but much will be ac-
complished toward putting the party in trim
for successful contest in the presidential
alaotion next wear

Following close upon the Riddleberger cpl
sode, is similar one in cabell county, West
Virginia, where the Hon. Eustaee Gibson, for
contempt fcourt, was fined $50 ADD sentenced
TO Jail for ten days. The similarity Of the two
cases, however, goes no further than that
Riddleberger and Gibson are both members
of Congress; both were on unfriendly terms
with the judges upon the bench, and both were
sent to prison for contempt ofooart. Riddle
berger oifense was the more serious. Hen
only offended the more, in parading his client
about town with plaeard, criticising the court
and jury. upon his back, bgt deGed arrest, and
afterwards allowed himself to be rescued bya
mob. Gibson used language in aercgatjon of
the court upon the public streets Of Hunting
ton, but quietly sobmitted to fine and i'm
prisonment

Insult to the President.

In Wheeling, West Virginia, last Friday,
nearly 5000 members of the Grand Army Of the
Republic, Union Veterans Legion, Sons of
Veterans and regimental organizations had a
parade. 1t was headed by carriages contain
ing Gov. Beaver, Gov Foraker, Governor
Wilson, Hon. John A. Bingham, ex Cover
nor Pierrepont, ex-President Hays, General
p. I. Kelly, Congressman Golf and other
distinguished visitors. Pittsburg sent 100
soldiers who formed the first division. AT
the Register Office was displayed a banner, IA
by 20 feet, with President Cleveland's picture
and the words: "God bless our President,
COMMANDMENTS Chief of the Army and Navy
of the United States" When the Pittsburg
g. A. R. Posts reached this, they at first re-
fused to proceed, but soon compromised and
marched around the banner. All the G.. A.
K. followed their example, but the Union
Veteran Legion marched under amid hearty
cheers. In the afternoon meetingin the tent
ves addressed by General Hayes, General
Wilson, Governor Foraker and Governor
Beaver. Governor Foraker dwelt on the
Rebel flag order. At night Governor Wilson,
in a speech at the Mcclure nouse, objected to
the word ''Rebel" and made some political
illusions which Foraker answered, and each
made three or four speeches pretty warm at
times. The crowd Of 10000 cheered and
Kissed. and altogether the seeIe was never
equalIed in Wheeling, if elsewhere. Foraker's
speeches were full Of sectionalism and calcu-
lated to arouse the enmities and passions ofthe
past Gov. Wilson would not permit the
South and the Democratic party to be placed
in false position and very effectively re-
PEELED Gov. Foraker's charges. Foraker is
twenty years behind the times, and belongs
to the Bloody-Sbirt statesman class that are
rapidly being relocated to private life.

The Republican press of Maryland are
forced to look beyond our borders for COM
pliments to their state ticket and for signs of
hope They, therefore, quote with evident
satisfaction opinions of the New York Times,
New York Tribune and Philadelphia Press.
1t is safe to say that what the editors of these
journals don't know about Maryland politics
and party opportunities, comprises about all
of value to be known. The Times has been
sadly imposed upon by its Baltimore cores
pondent, whose conscience is very elastic;
the other papers are never particular about
facts if partisan advantage can be obtained.
